Subject: [TUHS] Revisions of "C Reference Manual"
Date: Thu, 01 Nov 2018 12:31:53 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7w1s859dxi.fsf@junk.nocrew.org> (raw)
Hello,
Which revisions of the "C Reference Manuals" are known to be out there?
I found this:
https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/cman.pdf
Which seems to match the one from V6:
https://github.com/dspinellis/unix-history-repo/tree/Research-V6-Snapshot-Development/usr/doc/c
"C is also available on the HIS 6070 computer at Murray Hill and and on
the IBM System/370 at Holmdel [3]."
But then there's this:
https://www.princeton.edu/ssp/joseph-henry-project/unix-and-c/bell_labs_1369_001.pdf
"C is also available on the HIS 6070 computer ar Hurray Hill, using a
compiler written bu A. Snyder and currently maintained by S. C. Johnson.
A compiler for the IBM System/360/370 series is under construction."
Due to the description of the IBM compiler, it seems to predate the V6
revision.
Both above revisions use the =+ etc operators.
Finally, this version edited by Snyder:
https://github.com/PDP-10/its/blob/master/doc/c/c.refman
"In addition to the UNIX C compiler, there exist C compilers for the HIS
6000 and the IBM System/370 [2]."
This version documents both += and =+ operators.
